Neoplastic angioendotheliosis is a rare disorder characterized by intravascular neoplastic proliferation of endothelial cells within vessels of all caliber in the meninges and neuropil. Ischemic infarcts of brain and spinal cord result from occlusion of the lumina by neoplastic cells of fibrin thrombi. Transition from reactive to neoplastic endothelium can be identified in many vessels. Steroid therapy can be beneficial in reduction of severity of symptoms, but cannot alter the course of disease. Therapeutic intervention must be undertaken promptly after the diagnosis is confirmed by meningeal and cortical biopsy if the inexorable course of the disease is to be altered.

D001921 Brain The part of CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM that is contained within the skull (CRANIUM). Arising from the NEURAL TUBE, the embryonic brain is comprised of three major parts including PROSENCEPHALON (the forebrain); MESENCEPHALON (the midbrain); and RHOMBENCEPHALON (the hindbrain). The developed brain consists of CEREBRUM; CEREBELLUM; and other structures in the BRAIN STEM. Encephalon
D001932 Brain Neoplasms Neoplasms of the intracranial components of the central nervous system, including the cerebral hemispheres, basal ganglia, hypothalamus, thalamus, brain stem, and cerebellum. Brain neoplasms are subdivided into primary (originating from brain tissue) and secondary (i.e., metastatic) forms. Primary neoplasms are subdivided into benign and malignant forms. In general, brain tumors may also be classified by age of onset, histologic type, or presenting location in the brain.

D006390 Hemangioendothelioma A neoplasm derived from blood vessels, characterized by numerous prominent endothelial cells that occur singly, in aggregates, and as the lining of congeries of vascular tubes or channels. Hemangioendotheliomas are relatively rare and are of intermediate malignancy (between benign hemangiomas and conventional angiosarcomas). They affect men and women about equally and rarely develop in childhood.
